Electrical engineering deals with the engineering problems, opportunities and

needs of electronics, computer, telecommunications, power generation, power
electronics, and related industries.
Electrical engineers are highly employable, and can find work in many industries
such as automotive, IT, telecoms, manufacturing, power utilities, transportation
and construction.
Accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board, graduates from this
program meet the academic requirements for registration as a licensed professional
engineer in Canada.

Our program focuses on the design and development of electric and

computer technologies, and their component parts. The integration of
electrical components into complex systems is also studied.
